Mr.. Bayard is showing most unexpected
spirit. He declares his surprise that Sir
James FERGUSON should have said in Parla-
mcnt that the Government at Washington had
promised to seize no more scalcrs during the
fisheries negotiations. Nothing of the sort,
the Secretary of State asserts, was agreed
upon. Really this makes it little difficult
for Sir James but he may not be entirely to
blame after all. Perhaps he was only prema-
ture, and actually believed that Mr.. Bayard
would consent to anything the British Gov
eminent proposed. That has unfortunately
been the Secretarys general rule.

Is q better boat than the Maynower. When
the wind was steady, she did better than her
opponent But the unfinished trial race be-
tween these two yachts was not the leading
incident of the day. What most attracted
attention was the unexpected performance Of
the Thistle. She slipped into the Narrows
and sailed right away from the Volunteer and
Mayfowcr 1t is true that she had the breeze
at a better angle than they dId, but her action
filed the hackers of the Scotch yacht with JOY
and all patriotic American spectators with
anxiety.
THE TRIBUNE's London correspondent calls
attention in his cable dispatch this morning to
the great harm done to the cause Of Home
Rule just now by the killing by moonlighters
of the head constable in County Clare. That
crimo naturally counteracts to certain ex-
tent the indignation reused in England by the
shocking outrage by the police In Mitchels-
town and greatly embaIrasses the Liberal
allies of Home Rule. Any one can sec at
glance that this must be so. But could better
proof be offered of the innocence of the Par
neites in such matters? They, OF all men,
must dcp0re the crime which harms them
infinitely and aids the cause of their oppressors
Tho appeals of the Regatta Committee to
the steamboats, to keep out of the way OF the
competing yachts on the days Of the inter
national races ought to be needed. Indeed, it
ought not to be necessary to make them at all.
The commanders of the boats that 60 down

that they should keep a long distance to leo
ward of the yachts and also refrain from cut

should Mr. Colman exult as II his department

Collier left the Department Of Agriculture Gov
eminent investigation has not advanced a single
step. II anything has been learned in the Kansas
works il Is because the Government left them
alone. Much has been done in Rio Grande, New

chemist. II is not improbable that large amounts
Of sugar will be made north Of tho tropical cane
belt in few years. The researches in New-Jer-
sey seem 20 indicate that the problem is not TO be
solved by big companies and costly plants, but
that success is more likely with small mills owned

That Cession of Territory.

The statement quoted elsewhere from the
Bulletin of Wednesday, that "the present
administration are now negotiating for a
cession of territory to the United States
was made the subject of an interview with
the Minister of Foreign Affairs, by GAZETTE
reporter Thursday In answer to the in
quiry if there were any negotiations of that
character going on, His Excellency stated
that there were none whatever; that with
reference to the amendments of the United
States Senate to the new Reciprocity Treaty,
usually quoted as the Pearl River clause, a
communication had been sent forward to
Washington to ask for distinct and definite
Interpretation of what that amendment
meant or what il is intended to mean. And
that is all there is about it. The Govern
meut have not now and never had any IN
tention of negotiating for a cession of terri
tory. And what is more. said the Minister,
the Government does not own an inch of
land at Pearl River The lands are all pri-
vate property. Not only is this the case. but
there are fishing rights in the waters of the
river and harbor that are also private prop
erty. And the Government cannot cede
property that does not belong to it. The
cession of territory negotiations story is a
pure fabrication.

Juvenile RevOlutionists.

The mutiny or whatever it may be called,
at Lahainaluna, reported in Tuesdays GA
zETTE is not the first event of its kind in the
history of educational affairs in this country.
The young blood of Hawaii has asserted
itself in bold dashes for liberty from the
trammels of school life more than once.
Even girls have been known to take up the
role OF mutineers. The Waialua Girls
School some years ago broke off and made a
sudden migration to their homes. And in
1873, the Lahainaluna lads packed up their
traps to come to Honolulu by the schooner
Nettie Merrill, but they were cheekmated in
this little game by the Principal going to the
landing at Lahaina aud inducing the captain
of the vessel to set sail an hour earlier than
the schedule time, leaving the rebs high and
dry on the beach, and they we're subsequently
induced to return to duty.

Agent at this port, had certified to the effect
that, by the laws of the Chinese Empire, if

subsequent wives. Hence the Courts order

Wailuku Notes.

The w. G. Hall brings the following
items
Waikiki has had very little rain since May
last, only two and a half inches but there
has been a great deal in:the mountains, and
the fumes and bitches are all full.
There has been great excitement oyer rob-
berries in Wailuku. The lively thief has
been prowling round to see what he might
pick up, and has made pretty fair thing of
it. He carried off hundred dollars from
the residence of the Rev. Mr.. Bissel, sixty
dollars from an old native, and gold watch
from Mrs. Simpson. The police can't sleep
nights for looking him up, but at present all
to no purpose. Harry Treadway, however,
is an active fellow, and will drop on Mr..
Thief if anybody can.
Mr.. A. Il. Atkinson, Inspector General of
Schools, reached Wailuku after rough ride
over the mountain, on September 30th.

THE AMERICA CUP.
The Volunteer the Winner in Two
First Races.

Communication was scarcely more than
made between the shore aud the steamer San
Pablo from San Francisco on Saturday
evening, when the streets resounded with
joyful cries, announcing that the American
soop Volunteer had successfully defended
the America Cup against the Scotch cutter
Thistle, winning the first two races and thus
enabling the third to be dispensed with.
There was hearty cheering in Merchant
street by the crowd that suddenly besieged
the bookstores for papers containing par
tioulars of the event.
1t would be impossible to give details of
the races. occupying as they do many
columns in the San Francisco papers. The
first race was sailed on September 9th, when
the Volunteer by a skillful maneuver took
the lead within fifteen minutes from the
start, after which it was run away race and
the Thistle was beaten boat. The total
distance was thirty-eight statute miles, and
the Volunteer beat the Thistle l9m and 29s.
The Volunteers time time was III. 53m. 1885,;
the Thistle's, elapsed 5h. I2m. AIS, and cor
rect, 5h. 12m. 42s.
The second race, twenty miles to windward
and return, was sailed September 80, when
the American sloop again proved SUI
perior IN every situation of wind and water,
pointing to windward better and going
through the water faster. Still, on the home
stretch the Scotchman gained two or three
inmates III running Tree. AT the start tne
Thistle got away nearly four lengths ahead
of the Volunteer, but the latter at once began
to outpoint and outfoot her antagonist. In
the first tack, about seven miles, the Ameri-
can boat showed that the race was hers, The
time of the Volunteer was 5h. 42m. 5614s.; of
the Thistle, elapsed, 5h. 5tm. SIS, correct,
5h. sam. 45s. The correct time is given on ac-
count of an allowance of six seconds the
Thistle received over the Volunteer.
